50 Hairstyles for Women Over 70 to Try ASAP

Hairstyles for women over 70 don’t have to be boring! We women are always searching for ways to change up our hairstyle but usually end up stuck with our go-to or something familiar to us. Many of us love the length because it allows putting the hair up in a ponytail, separating it into braids, twirling our fingers in it, and much more. Sometimes it even becomes a security blanket.

If you’re looking to be gutsy, take some of these photos with you the next time you visit the salon. The payoff of being adventurous will show itself when you walk out with newfound confidence.

1. Swept Back Gray Hairstyle. Feathered and tapered are very popular techniques to wear hair among senior women. If you’re not the one to spend a lot of time getting ready in the morning, it’ll only take a couple of minutes to run your hands and some texturizing spray through your hair!

2. Voluminous Pixie. Some volume on the top and textured pieces framing the face — that’s what you need to boost otherwise limp tresses.

3. Silver Pixie Bob. We all know that too much layering is a big no-no when it comes to haircuts for thinning locks. However, even thin hair can gain depth and movement with strategically placed layers.

9. Wavy Bob. Another textured bob haircut, this time with a longer length, lends a hand to sass and fun. Women looking to keep their wavy or curly hair will love this option.

10. Stacked Cut with Glasses. This cross between a pixie in the back and a bob up front plays up the curls in a fun way. Not all haircuts for older ladies have to be straight and simple!

11. Cropped Pixie with Balayage. Hairstyles for senior women aren’t limited to whites and grays – if you want additional style points for your favoring style, try some waves and balayage lowlights for volume.

12. Rooty Blonde Hairstyle. This choppy bowl cut reincarnation shows how good old hairstyles can be revamped to look edgy while flattering your facial features and hair type and delivering low maintenance.

13. Layered Pixie Bob Cut. The tapered pixie cut doesn’t suggest thick hair only. It works well for fine gray hair as well.

14. Micro Bangs. A baby fringe may feel like a daring addition to short hair unless it is cut super light and coupled with sufficient volume throughout the perimeter.

15. Textured Pixie with Bangs. Look cool yet graceful with this textured pixie undercut that highlights your cheekbones. Opt for some side-swept bangs for a more romantic feel. Plus, they even hide your forehead wrinkles!
